Fabulous Room Friday 08.31.12

This week’s fabulous room is just the kind of space I’d love to spend some time in this weekend. This living room is part of a Sonoma, California pied-a-terre, home to textile designer, Susan Snyder who divides her time between this stunning home and an apartment in Paris. The Sonoma home is featured in the September/October 2012 issue of Veranda. I love the clean color palette—stark white and warm brown. The room is so striking in its simplicity. The palette really allows the architectural details in the space to take center stage. I also love the clean lines of the fireplace and the furniture. The coffee table, which would be perfect for a bibliophile like myself, is vintage as are the brown leather Marcel Breuer chairs (I have a black pair in my home), and the Marcel Breuer credenza. The space is warm, inviting, and so, so chic!

Houston friends, be sure to save the date! Neiman Marcus has asked me and four other Houston bloggers—Beth of Houston’s Weekly Chic, Monica of Classy & Fabulous, Samantha of The Peak of Tres Chic, and Bailey of Peppermint Bliss to share our top beauty picks at their Beauty Kick-Off Event on Tuesday, September 11th from 6:00 – 8:00 pm. Join us for cocktails, demos, samples, mini-facials, a red lip station, and braid bar. The first 250 guests will receive a bag full of beauty swag! For more details, visit Houston Tidbits. Hope to see you there!
